Collectors Club

[ EST 1996 ]

Collectors Club, based in Western Australia, has been a platform for over 70 art connoisseurs and collectors to meet, discover new art together and discuss their interest since 1996.

The club is a not-for-profit organisation whose core objective is to educate and connect its members with contemporary WA art and artists, whilst promoting the contemporary arts practice in the region.

The John Stringer Prize
a platform for art connoisseurs and collectors to meet, discover new art together.
In 2010, Collectors Club decided to sponsor an award to support an outstanding WA contemporary visual artist. The prestigious John Stringer Prize commissions six contemporary WA artists to create new work from which a winning artist, selected by the Collectors Club, receives $12,500.
The Prize honours John Stringer’s life and the legacy of his contribution to local visual arts and culture. In keeping with John’s passionate devotion to the arts, and his wish to see greater patronage of local talent, the Prize is intended to encourage and support Western Australian artists.
